Got questions about a GTA 5 money cheat code? How about cheats for GTA Online? You’re not alone. With any game as popular as GTA 5, it’s inevitable that people will start looking for ways to have all the cars, gear and loot as quickly as possible.

Most previous games in the Grand Theft Auto series include some kind of money cheat that gives your character an instant cash bonus, and which you can then use to easily buy anything in the game. GTA 5 has plenty of things to purchase – cars, weapons, properties, upgrades, clothes, businesses – and GTA Online increases that by orders of magnitude thanks to its extensive DLC. There’s also a ton of single player cheats – but is there one for money?

GTA 5 Money Cheat Code

All 3D-era GTA games prior to Grand Theft Auto 5 had some kind of cheat code that you could use to receive large sums of in-game money instantly. So it’s logical to assume that the latest game in the series, GTA 5, would share this feature – however, that is not the case. While GTA 5 features an extensive list of cheats for all sorts of other things, none of them let you add money.

There is no money cheat code in GTA 5.

However, we do have plenty of ways for you to make easy in-game money. You can also use the briefcase tactic to repeatedly earn money, as demonstrated in the video below.

The reasoning behind there being no unlimited money cheat in GTA 5 story mode is simple. The simulated stock market in GTA 5 is connected across all instances of the game in order to make it feel a little bit more like a real stock market. Each player affects the market and all other players will see stock prices rise and fall accordingly. If players had access to unlimited cash, it would make this feature meaningless. However, we have an excellent resource to help you earn millions of $GTA from the stock market regardless.

Players who use cheats to add large sums of money would be able to affect stock prices for non-cheating players as well, and Rockstar can’t have that. It would skew the balance and negatively impact the game experience of players who don’t want to resort to using cheats.

However, the stock market is also the solution to the money problems you might have in story mode. If you play your cards right, all three protagonists will be walking around with millions. Basically, you need to leave Lester’s assassination missions until the very end of your playthrough, giving you the largest sum of GTA$ to be invested in stocks and in turn producing the largest payout.

In single player there are GTA 5 cheats for pretty much everything, from making yourself invincible to maxing out your health and armour, but there isn’t one that’ll give you an infinite bank balance.

GTA Online Money Cheat Code

There is no unlimited money cheat code, or any cheats at all for that matter, in GTA Online.

Since GTA Online players are in the game together, using cheats would completely ruin the balance and gameplay for everyone involved. Additionally, Rockstar sells Shark Cards, which allow players to spend real money in exchange for in-game currency – if a money cheat was possible, nobody would buy Shark Cards, would they?

None of the single player cheat codes work either. There was a time when it was possible to purchase “mod menus” from shady developers that let you “hack” in GTA Online, but doing so will land you a permanent account ban. Take-Two has been diligently hunting down mod menu developers and shutting them down these past few years. Other than grinding or buying Shark Cards, there is no quick and easy way to big bucks.

That said, GTA Online is filled to the brim with ways to make cash and we’ve put together multiple guides that pull together the best and quickest methods to make GTA$ in GTA Online.

GTA 5 Money “Hacks” and Generators etc

In your quest to discover the truth about GTA 5 money cheats, it’s likely that you’ll come across services that claim to give away or generate in-game currency for you, in exchange for mundane tasks. Or maybe you’ve found a website that, after taking your Rockstar Social Club information, has you fill out a survey for a GTA$ reward.

These are all scams.

Data phishing is a big business and these companies prey on users who think they can grab some free $GTA by giving away some personal information or maybe even their account credentials. We advise everyone to steer well away from these scammers and speak in greater detail about them in our video below.

We hope we’ve answered all your questions about the fabled GTA 5 and Online money cheat. To reiterate, there is no such thing and anyone claiming otherwise is attempting to scam you. You have to work for all that GTA$, but with our guides, the process should be quick and easy.

I know online hacking/cheating is still a major problem on PC. I ended up going back to console because if it. The last time I tried playing online, there was a few guys just trapping people in cages and having cars blow up at random. Couldn't even leave my garage. I wish they would have sorted that mess. Hoping it is better in the next one as I preferred playing on PC.

The worst I have dealt with have been those storms. Like altering the weather and then they just randomly fling you up in the air.

I think the cheats are more fun on PC offline, for whatever reason. Likely down to the fun modding but if you play online, it is WAY better on console. No questions asked.

I figure there was a reason for not having money cheats but it makes sense when the stock market is involved. I think with how cheats function, you can easily earn and collect a ton of money without it anyways.

I don't see why a money cheat in story mode (not Online) would be a problem. It wouldn't affect anyone else. Why can't they have a money cheat just for the offline game?

Y'all sound real thirsty in the comments, do some mission, start a business or do some high paid heist with some friends you will start making money.

Cheats are more fun on PC for sure and I agree, online at this point is only fun on console. Even then, you encounter trolls.

I do agree that having a money cheat for the game should have been a part of it. I mean cheats are not allowed online anyways.
